Its not KK's responsibility to point out to Ed that Ed screwed. If KK views himself as a journo, then its for him to publicise if he wants; no laws broken. There is no cartel of producers and assorted KK's and others, whose task it is to protect each other from blunders. Ed screwed up, it up to Ed to recover, not to attack KK for divulging the screw up. Finally, if this was a Mindscape screw up with Chessmaster 5000, I doubt very much that anybody here would be concerned. I think it highly likely tthat the mechanism for exploiting the screw up would be happily posted here, without complaint from anyone. So stop playing clique-ish games. Chris Whittington
